The Nuclear Threat: Putin's Policy and West's Warning.
TL;DR Summary
The US and European allies have warned Russian President Vladimir Putin against "dangerous" nuclear rhetoric after he announced plans to store tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus. However, Western powers said they saw no immediate danger or reasons to change their own strategic nuclear positions in the wake of his remarks. NATO called his comments "irresponsible," but said it had not seen any changes to Russia's nuclear posture "that would lead us to adjust our own."
